I Became an Academy Overpowered Marksman

chapter 23



23. her cold expression

However, it seems that my murmur did not reach Mun Cheol-woong’s ears.

Moon Cheol-woong took Lee Hyun-seung’s wallet and shook it around as if he was angry.

“Why? What do you keep looking at?”

Judging from Mun Cheol-woong’s reaction, he clearly knew that the wallet he was holding belonged to Lee Hyeon-seung.

Lee Hyun-seung may have accidentally dropped the wallet, or Moon Cheol-woong may have stolen it naturally, or it may have been acquired by accident. There are many possibilities, but that’s not the point. The problem was that Mun Cheol-woong was deliberately abusing Lee Hyeon-seung.

As for the cause, of course, Lee Hyun-seung cut his leg in class and gave him embarrassment.

Lee Hyeon-seung thought to himself as he was dumbfounded by Mun Cheol-woong’s absurd attitude.

‘What on earth does this guy believe in and play around with like this?’

If it was a one-on-one match, it was obvious that Moon Cheol-woong would collapse without being able to respond properly. Above all, didn’t Seong Hyun-wook, who was already one of the A-class members, lose to Lee Hyun-seung even though he used swordsmanship? There was no way that Mun Cheol-woong, who was only in F class, could beat Lee Hyeon-seung.

However, this is a story from the point of view of someone who knows everything.

The battle between Lee Hyeon-seung and Seong Hyeon-wook took place in a place where only a few members of the same A class were present, and this has not yet been properly rumored.

And, it was clear that rumors would not spread in the future.

‘There’s no way he’s going around bragging about losing to a gunman.’

Seong Hyun-wook is class A, and now Lee Hyun-seung is class F, and even a gunman. It was a disgrace among shame that the swordsman lost to such a person. There was no way for him, who was so proud of himself that he would not bend his pride even after being beaten to death, to brag about himself, and there was no way that the guys next to him would talk first.

‘Han Bo-eun’s personality doesn’t seem like she’s going to talk to anyone…’

At the time when Seong Hyun-wook and Lee Hyun-seung were fighting, F-class Han Bo-eun could be described as the only outsider there. Her personality belonged to the side of being silent rather than bragging about other people’s stories.

‘Whoa…’

Having sorted out the situation, I understand it to some extent. Why are people like Mun Cheol-woong in front of me right now blabbering?

Because you don’t know.

This guy doesn’t know how strong Lee Hyunseung is. Even if he fought hostilely with Yoo Hee-yeon in Class A, it did not mean that he showed force. In addition, rumors circulated that Jung Eun-seo and Nam Jin-seok seemed to exist through personal connections, but compared to Yoo Hee-yeon’s guild, Artemis, they weren’t that great of a group.

For Mun Cheol-woong, Lee Hyeon-seung is a good prey to catch and eat. The Artemis Guild that Yoo Hee-yeon’s parents belong to. It is an opportunity to showcase one’s abilities there. Currently, Lee Hyeon-seung and Yoo Hee-yeon are in a hostile situation. In other words, Artemis Guild and Lee Hyeon-seung stood on opposite sides.

They must have thought that if someone stepped forward and took care of Lee Hyun-seung first without using their hands, they would surely get a good evaluation or stand out. Moon Cheol-woong is one of those opportunists.

‘Since I thought so, I must have crossed my legs as soon as I entered class. f*ck… I didn’t do anything.’

I was suddenly annoyed, but I decided to put up with it. Because there are many eyes around you.

Hyunseung Lee responded calmly.

“That wallet is mine. So give it back.”

Moon Cheol-woong answered at the same time as he turned his wallet around while hesitating.

“Wherever you look at this wallet, do you think it’s yours? Where did you write your name on it? Or did you put mana on it? There’s no proof that it’s yours, no proof.”

-Kidduck

Moon Cheol-woong is right. I can’t guarantee that the wallet is really mine. It looks the same, but looking at the inside, it’s really not my wallet, but it could be that guy’s wallet.

About 99% of my wallet will be right, but it is said that there may be an exception of 1%. Even if my wallet is right, if I slap him in the face for calling him a thief, I’ll be fine if both of them get suspended, I won’t treat it as self-defence.

Gradually, the limit of patience began to rise.

It’s not because you did something great. It was because Moon Cheol-woong’s expression was more hateful than he could have imagined.

As if he had become a monkey or a chimpanzee, he was making a funny face, turning his head around and making a sarcastic remark. Even if I just stay still, I’m going to take a look at it, and I’m going to take a look at someone else’s wallet, but it was rather strange to just stay still.

“Such a f*cking bastard…”

When Lee Hyun-seung couldn’t stand it and cursed at him, Mun Cheol-woong said that he had waited.

“Wow… It’s f*cking scary. It’s not enough to catch a live person, so now you’re even cursing? I’m going to hit you. Why? Why don’t you hit me? Why don’t you get slapped in the face and then get suspended again? Give me a hit here.”

The guy smacks his face with his fingers and raises his eyebrows.

‘I can’t hit it.’

In the academy, there is no punishment for getting hurt or taking damage during 1v1 sparring. Dalian is one of the most important means to develop a sense of real combat, and above all, it is a combat act with mutual consent. Of course, if you do something like tearing off someone’s arm or creating a disability, you will be severely punished. Forever, sparring must be conducted within a framework that fits the word ‘strife’.

In other words, if you keep the proper line, it is possible to legally do any amount of defeat.

‘Should I naturally induce sparring and defeat it?’

Lee Hyeon-seung thought to himself, but shook his head.

‘In the future, there will be more than one or two people who are messing around like this. If I had to do sparring every time, not only would I use my stamina needlessly, but a lot of information about me would flow out.’

Currently, all that is known about Lee Hyun-seung inside the academy is that he had a job as a gunman.

However, because he couldn’t hold back his anger and fought Seong Hyeon-wook, he might have caught on to him that he had a job as a gunman of Epic level or higher.

It was this much with just one battle, but if you fight several times for no reason, you don’t know what kind of information will flow.

‘There is still time before the annihilation.’

A class annihilation battle where classes collide with each other. And before that, there was a representative contest to select a representative for each class. In these two selections, it is overwhelmingly advantageous to not be well known about yourself.

Lee Hyeon-seung knows almost all information about the other party. However, on the contrary, the other party does not know almost all information about Lee Hyun-seung. No, I’m rather careless. It is said that they are making a big mistake by despising him as a pathetic and stupid gunman.

Even in battles between the weak and the strong, when the strong lose, conceit or carelessness accounts for most of the factors. At least, Lee Hyeon-seung’s job is ‘legend’, which is higher in rank than the others.

‘In addition to the advantage of being a legendary class, it is possible to win more overwhelmingly by using the fact that there is a difference in information.’

In class annihilation, the reason why you need to win more forward is simple.

In order to give Yoo Hee-yeon a greater sense of despair, in addition, it was to inform the other guilds about the existence of a person named Lee Hyun-seung.

‘Because Class Extermination is one of the large-scale events that other guilds attend.’

Class Annihilation is one of the biggest events inside the Broad Academy. It’s not just one or two students in Extermination War. As students of all classes battle, it is a very good opportunity for high-level guilds to see the talents they will recruit at a glance in advance.

Not just individual competencies, but also leadership, crisis coping skills, and how to use one’s job. Just by appreciating the class annihilation battle, high-ranking guilds can figure out whether students match their inclinations and what potential they have.

‘My purpose is to make the moderates who do not belong to the Artemis Guild aware of my existence.’

Lee Hyun-seung is conducting this class annihilation battle, not only bringing despair to Yoo Hee-yeon, but also a middle-of-the-road force that does not belong to the Artemis Guild. I was going to seduce them.

While showing their tremendous potential, they are definitely trying to imprint their eyes on them.

It’s not that I want to be incorporated into their power. Later, when Lee Hyeon-seung creates a guild and starts to build forces, it is just a process to smoothly absorb them.

Hyunseung Lee is drawing a big picture.

‘It’s not just relying on Jung Eun-seo and Nam Jin-seok. In the future, I have to build my forces. And I will inflate that power at random, and in the end, I will destroy all of the bloody Yu Hee-yeon, the Artemis Guild, and even Hilleon.’

– Kadeudeuk

Thinking so, Hyunseung Lee lowered his head. I couldn’t just hit and fight like a child because I had a fight until when, so I just had to lose in the representative selection match anyway. Because at that time, being exposed to power is something that can’t be helped.

Hyunseung Lee lowered his head like an adult and spoke.

“If you’re doing this because I accidentally shot your instep earlier, I apologize. I have a lot in my wallet, so I have to take it. If you want, I’ll give you the cash inside, so just give me back your ID and card.”

As soon as he heard that, Mun Cheol-woong shook his arms and shouted in anger.

“f*ck-! Do you know who the beggar is? I’ll give you money, so ask for something else back? You crazy bastard!”

I tried to say it in the best possible way, but in the eyes of Moon Cheol-woong, it seemed like he was being treated like a beggar.

-Sueug

Moon Cheol-woong, impatient, raised his arm and tried to hit Lee Hyun-seung with his fist.

Lee Hyeon-seung saw this and thought to himself.

‘Yeah, it might be better if I get hit and this kid gets suspended, since I won’t see a monkey like him in the future.’

If you hit it, it definitely won’t hurt that much.

Thinking so, Lee Hyeon-seung stared at Moon Chul-woong’s fist approaching.

at that time.

-Shhhhh-!

I started to feel the bloody energy of mana from behind.

-Turup

Soon after, a girl who moved at great speed snatched Moon Cheol-woong’s arm as it was.

The girl, Jeong Eun-seo, talked to Moon Cheol-woong with a cold expression.

“What are you doing?”

Jeong Eun-seo, she was looking at the man with very cold eyes, just like Lee Hyun-seung had originally known.
